ah ha - a reply from O2!

Finally! after trying for ages, I spoke to O2 Technical Support today. the guy was very friendly and seemed very helpful...

He seemed really surprised by the problems I described, saying that noone else has reported anything like this happening before. He was dubious when I said of other people here having the same problem, saying that despite supporting the XDA Exec for months and testing/using them extensively they have never encountered this problem or had it reported to them before.

He said that it is likely a result of faulty hardware and that I could send it to O2 for repair, although I am reluctant to do this. being without my pda would be inconvenient, they're never the same after they've been opened up and tinkered with, and I'm not convinced that it's a hardware fault anyway!

so, he's offered to look into it further - asked me to create a new pop3 account tonight and said he will phone me daily to see what happens until it vanishes again. not sure what this will achieve, but if i'm reluctant to send it to them to open up, and he's not seen it before, then what else can he do, I s'pose

Re: ah ha - a reply from O2!

Its a start. I'm wondering if using a different email tool will help at all...?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] wkeller:
email accounts lost

Tell him that probably the "cemail.vol" database is corrupt (thanks to wm5!). I will try to move it to the SD card by changing the registry path. Search Goocle for "cemail.vol corrupt".
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] jdee246:
I'm pretty sure this is a 'feature' of WM5 and will happen on all devices. Settings/registry changes stay in RAM for the first few minutes before passing into ROM. So if you soft reset while its still in RAM then you lose it.

Is there a way to change the keyword "Ok Google" to another phrase? I have both a N4 and a N5 and don't need both going off every time I say "ok google".
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aooga:
No, but why would you be using both phones at the same time and with both just sitting on the launcher?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] famewolf:
Multiple people = multiple phones in use at same time. While the scenario may be rare it's happened twice that both phones kicked off a request I made in same room and it annoys the other person using the device. Also the launcher isn't the only place the phrase works...it also works in Google Now which may be displaying information for the other person and they don't appreciate it bouncing off to a new search in the middle of them reading.

Can we use the HTC One section as well? Or are we limited to just the roms in the at&t forum? Thanks.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] hack14u:
With an avatar like that, there are no limits:laugh:

For real though, it's all up to you and what you want to do. Roms from both will work, flash them at will and see what works best for you. There will be differences in some vs others, radio, firmware, etc..., but it's all good. S-off will give you unlimited opportunities. Happy endeavors.

One more thing. Are root manuals and other guides apply as well. Such as rooting and s off? It's kinda confusing to me. Thanks for the reply.

It doesn't really matter where you post. Most of these threads support both US Carriers and International versions of the HTC One
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] hack14u:
Unlock is done via www.htcdev.com, and S-Off is done via RR. Just make SURE you use the right version of RumRunner. It MUST match, or you will get into trouble quick. Now, here is the interesting part. You must be unlocked to use Rumrunner, but once you S-Off, you will be locked again. To do certain things you will need to re-run the unlock.bin, and re-unlock. Not a big deal, but just to let you know.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] garzjoe:
Ok so I'm what you guys would call a newbie with Android, I've been an iPhone user for years (switched from Verizon to AT&T to get the iPhone because at the time it was an AT&T exclusive). However I'm a really big Google enthusiasts so I have followed Android from inception. Growing tired of how bad AT&T's reception was in my house I recently switched back to Verizon and I purchased the GS4. I'm very happy that I can make calls without the use of a Micro Cell, truthfully reliable coverage was the biggest reason why I switched carriers. Else I would probably got the GS4 or HTC 1 on AT&T.

Being a newbie I made some noob mistakes, however I'm glad to report non of my mistakes bricked my phone. My phone works flawless it's only the stock recovery that is jacked up. So to start off I naively though all S4's were 100% open when rooted, by that I thought I could simply install any ROM I wanted to as long as I was rooted. However it appears that Verizon made Samsung lock the firmware with the OTA updates, from what I gather now after reading is the initial firmware was ok but the subsequent OTA downloads introduced the locked boot. Which sucks for me because I willingly took both updates which put the ME7 and now the MI1 builds on my device. :eek:

When I started to root process I had the MI1 build and I performed the De LaVega root method (thank you Tomsgt for your videos)! At the time of root and right after the root I was still not aware of the difference with builds. At that point I attempted to install TWRP via GooManager, since I had the MI1 build it did not work. GooManager kept telling me there was no file for my phone or something similar.

Now this should have been huge red flag for me but I was persistent and I looked on TWRP's website and found the file for my phone along with the manual install instructions. I'm familiar with using a Linux command line so followed the instructions to write TWRP into

/dev/block/mmcblk0p21

on my device.

After reboot my device failed to get into stock recovery mode, instead it goes back into download mode but has an extra line of text that says "Could not do normal boot". Since I originally hosed my stock recovery I have read up on the different builds and I have also successfully installed the clockmod recovery option. That all works fine it's just factory recovery is still hosed up and it's annoying me!

I know that was a bit long winded but wanted to give a little background. Now I hope I'm not the only guy/girl who has jacked up the stock recovery section. I was hoping someone had some instructions to fix. Heck I think (but I'm not 100% sure) that if I can get someone who still has stock recovery to copy/export what they have in

/dev/block/mmcblk0p21

, then I can download that file put on my sd card and then write that back into my system using the same dd input/output command I did before.

May not be that easy but that's what I'm hoping for, or maybe some suggestions. :fingers-crossed:

Thx,

Joe
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] garzjoe:
Thanks kennyglass123, sorry it was posted in the wrong area! :)

Again I don't know if this will work but it's worth a try. For anyone who has a rooted Verizon GS4 and can get into stock recovery with no issues can I have you copy and export what's in

/dev/block/mmcblk0p21

to an external file? For those who may not be familiar with Linux I have a few commands you can run below.

1.) Using terminal emulate create a folder to store the file on external card, in my example below I named it "StockRecovery" but you can name it whatever you want.

2.) su

3.) mkdir -p /storage/extSdCard/StockRecovery

4.) dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p21 of=/storage/extSdCard/StockRecovery/mmcblk0p21

This should create a file named

mmcblk0p21

under the StockRecovery folder of your external SD card. If you could then either attach that file here or maybe upload the file to a public dropbox, or even e-mail that file to me I would really appreciate it! :)

Not sure this will fix my problem but it's worth a shot! :cool:

Thx,

Joe

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] southpaw5271:
If your phone is bricked I would recommend the Verizon Repair Assistant.

THIS IS A LAST RESORT.

This will fully update your phone but it will fix any errors.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] garzjoe:
Hmm I can investigate that but my phone is not bricked. I'm using it now to reply to you. Stock recovery is hosed...so when I power off and then hold Vol+, Power, Home key and then let go of power and keep holding the other two buttons. That key sequence gets my phone into recovery mode. However I can't get into that with my phone anymore.

Thx,

Joe
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] kevingt01:
When I swap the battery in my note 2, it won't power on until I plug it in for a minute even if the battery is charged. Any ideas?

Edit: some more info: I was having bad battery drain on CM10, installed battery doctor. I thought I'd try a new battery as well for the battery drain and started noticing that it wouldn't power on after changing the battery. I formatted, refreshed and installed slimrom 4.3. It looks like I'm getting better battery life, but I have basically nothing installed. I'm still not able to replace the battery without a power cable to "jump start" it. Its almost like the phone doesn't even detect the battery until I plug in a cable.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] kevingt01:
Update: I don't have any better battery life with slimrom. I'm loosing about 8-9% an hour in standby. About 5% an hour with the phone powered completely off. I have 3 different batteries that all hold charge when out of the phone.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Deleted member 3920726:
Are you using one of those crappy GOLD Chinese batteries? That might be your problem, don't know why, or of all of them cause issues, but a co-worker bought one for his HTC and was having a lot of issues.

For the battery drain you should at least try to diagnose what is causing it. Either install Wake Lock Detector (free on Google Play) or Better battery Stats (paid on Google Play, free on xda).

Most of my battery drain are constant and numerous wake locks caused by Goolge apps, including Keep and Google +. Once you know what is causing it, it will be easier to fix.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] kevingt01:
Update for anyone with similar issue..

I followed a guide on here to get back to factory stock (no root, stock recovery, etc). I had problems getting into download mode at one point and thought I was completely bricked until I decide to try booting without the battery even in the phone (powered just by USB). I was able to get into download mode that way and revert to stock.

Here's the strangest part to me: battery life is now back to normal. Not just regular use and standby, but completely powered off, I now only loose 0.5-1% an hour where I was loosing ~7% when powered off.

I don't know if it makes a difference, but I've also been keeping my wifi off. I'm experiencing terribly weak wifi transmission (still trying to figure that one out) that will cause my phone to loose wifi connection, or it will stay connected but is unable to load anything. Maybe my wifi issues relate to the crazy battery problems. Who knows.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] anelsmj:
Hi I have the same issue on my Galaxy Note 3 N9005. Battery drain when phone completely off. Can't turn on after swapping battery without charge. Tried factory reset, flash stock rom issue still exists. Any suggestions? Thanks.

I really hope that the n5 one isn't as bad as the lg l7 or RAZR v.

Wayyyy too big for those 2 phone. Could not fit it nicely in my street jeans, only fit properly in my work jeans (yes I'm that guy with like 3 of the same work jeans), only because they are of the carpenter ones and I put the phone where the hammer is suppose to go
[Nexus 5 Accessories] firemedic1343:
There are a currently nice slim cases out there. You should probably stay away from the Ballistic line if you don't want bulk.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] MoonDoom:
Great find! The only thing that would concern me a bit is that the case wraps way farther around the front of the phone than most of the cases out right now. I don't know if these usually come with screen protectors, but I imagine it might be a problem for those using thicker (glass) screen protectors. Both the white and black variants both look awesome though!
[Nexus 5 Accessories] TheTommyD:
My nexus 4 Ballistic didn't ship with any screen protectors. I actually have my Ballistic Nexus 4 case stretched on my Nexus 5. The holes don't line up and it interferes with the volume, but gives me peace of mind until the Nexus 5 case I ordered arrives. From what I've read the glass protectors are not very thick so I image they would fit.

I will definitely buy their Nexus 5 case.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] MoonDoom:
You're probably right. After looking closer at the pictures, it seems like the part on the bottom that wraps over the face is silicone so it should stretch easily enough over a screen protector.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] jblack41510:
I'll be getting one. Have the spigen slim now.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] hth_1:
I mean I did like the ballistic case on my l7. Made me feel safe that it was protected, on the flip side I eventually found it too bulky. But hey good on ballistic for bringing in more competition!
[Nexus 5 Accessories] firemedic1343:
The older the device gets, the less I feel I need protection. Maybe it's because I start itching for a new phone every 6 months or so.

Compared with Trident and Urban Armor

How do you think the Ballistic compares to Trident and UAG cases?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] firemedic1343:
I've seen the outer shell of many Trident cases take damage from drops. Which is arguably good. But I've seen Ballistic take a beating with drops and never show real damage to the case.

I have no XP with UAG.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] AndroidUser79:
Oh, good to know, especially because Ballistic is working on the cases. I hope they have decent colors.

Also, I am quietly hoping that UAG and Trident do some cases for N5.

Such a shame that they dont respect the N5 community.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] firemedic1343:
Since you mention colors. Ballistic often puts out a vibrant red. Trident on the other hand has frequently released a washed out pink-red, even though it will look nice in their ad pics. I have had nice lime-green cases from Trident. Moral of story is just don't trust Trident's colors, especially the red.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] TheTommyD:
Here's some pages with colors. I set an e-mail alert for when they are in stock.

[Nexus 5 Accessories] hth_1:
Pro tip

Don't buy gocelluar. Had a very bad experience, thought ordering from there was great due to price and because it was Canadian... Didn't like that they lied about processing time, and how they handled my compliant. It was so bad I had to open a case with BBB.

If anything day deal is amazing! At least they have good customer service and decent prices to Canada.

Also to the guy that replied to my post, I feel that way too, the cheap huawei I had was the only phone that I had that went case less. Its more of price than age here though lol
[Nexus 5 Accessories] TheTommyD:
I just got home and had two e-mail alerts about The Ballistic case. Neither alert was for Ballistic!

I only requested e-mail alerts from the two companies in my previous post so one of them is playing switcheroo.

Both alerts were from two totally different companies showing a knock off Ballistic case for $7.99.

[Nexus 5 Accessories] ddb540:
I think their refusal to make cases for the N5 is less out of "lack of respect", and more out of "wouldn't make financial sense". If they saw a market for the product where they expected to make a profit, I'm sure they'd gladly design and produce cases for the N5.
